Slowly over time
We created
This land
Created this
Other world
Brought to
Light & Life
So bright
Brought so
Close to
Another space
& time...
Created this
Other world
Somewhere
Between
Yours
& Mine
In its
Own time
All with
Words
&
Rhyme
You brought
Me closer to
the
Other world

Have you ever looked evil in the eye?


           I have


    And he winked


A tone as smooth as velvet

A grin of a boy

His lips parted seas,

of churning lava

But I saw a pool,

     to dip my toes

He splashed playful twists and turns

    Till I was soaked

And drops trickled down my skin,

    scathed by sin

That murky tank of burns.
This was on my old page & I didn’t want to lose it as part of my collection, so here it is.

Dragonfly
Wished to
Be firefly
Butterfly
Prayed
To be
Dragonfly
All the while
Firefly
Continued
To show off
Her glow
In the dark
And be a
Light
In the night.
This is a little piece about how it is easy to think life would be better to be someone else when shouldn't we try our best to love and accept ourselves? <3

Underneath
The setting Sun
There was only
One
Faint spark
Left
To be
Seen
